The outlet reported that Pollatschek also expressed a sense of fear as she watched the election results live.
She wrote: ‘6:30 is also a great time to feel helpless, feel sorry for yourself, panic and be in pure horror.
‘Curiosity is at an all-time low in the early morning hours. The problem, of course, is that the Donald Trump story has been exhausted since 2016.”
Automakers in the European nation, including BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Porsche and Volkswagen, saw their stock prices fall after Trump won the election.
The dip came amid fears that he will impose steep tariffs on the sector. He has imposed higher tariffs on foreign vehicles to protect American jobs.
German Chancellor Olaf Scholz congratulated Trump on his victory, saying: “For decades, Germany and the United States have worked side by side to promote prosperity and freedom on both sides of the Atlantic.
‘Together with you, I want to continue this successful work for the benefit of our citizens.’
Trump is the first president in more than 130 years, and only the second in history, to win a non-consecutive second term.

The race initially appeared neck-and-neck when Americans went to the polls on Tuesday after a tense months-long build-up.
Democrats had counted on retaining the trio of states – Michigan, Wisconsin and Pennsylvania – to give Harris the White House. Biden won them in 2020.
But ultimately, Harris did not improve on President Joe Biden’s performance against Trump four years ago.
Democrats had counted on retaining the trio of states – Michigan, Wisconsin and Pennsylvania – to give Harris the White House. Biden won them in 2020.
But Trump won them instead, giving him 292 electoral votes to Harris’ 224. It takes 270 to become president.
Harris is now on track to do worse than Hillary Clinton in the 2016 presidential election.
She could even be on track to have the worst showing of any Democrat in the Electoral College since the 1988 election.
Exit polls show his victory came after he made gains with almost every voting bloc he lost in the 2020 election and built a coalition of multi-ethnic working-class voters.
And Harris underperformed Biden on Tuesday in the 2020 battle among key voting groups, including women, the working class and Latinos.

Addressing dozens of tearful supporters gathered at her alma mater Howard University in Washington DC, she said: “This is not what we wanted.”
She pledged to help with the peaceful transition of power, even as she said she would continue her fight after Trump’s dominant victory.
By Wednesday afternoon, the former president had captured five of the seven swing states and was on the verge of passing the 300-vote mark in the Electoral College.
“While I concede this election, I will not concede to the strife this campaign has fueled,” she said.
Her voice trembled at times as she addressed a huge crowd of supporters of her alma mater.
Harris thanked President Joe Biden, her family, her staff and her supporters. She also expressed pride in her campaign.
Before her speech, Harris called Trump to congratulate him, urge a peaceful transition of power and encourage him to be a president for all Americans.
President Joe Biden then called Trump and invited him to the White House, just as Michigan was called — the fifth swing state to go in the Republican’s favor.
